Ro Sham Bo by The Grays

Ro Sham Bo, released on Epic on February 22, 1994, is the one and only album by the Grays, a short-lived band built from four songwriters who could each play just about anything: Jon Brion, Jason Falkner, Buddy Judge and Dan McCarroll. Put four writers like that in one room and you get a record crammed with melody, chiming guitars and pop smarts, sweet and a little sour at once.

"Very Best Years" was the single, with a video behind it, and "Same Thing" and "Not Long for This World" went out to radio as promos. Then the band was gone. The album has since drifted out of print, but it's still highly prized by the people who found it.
